Although no cross-linkers were used in the synthesis, the aerogel preserved its shape after being immersed in water for 2 h, indicating that the material has a stable structure due to the cellulose–cellulose hydrogen bond inFor further demonstrating the flexibility and absorbance rate of the compressed cellulose aerogels
ofthe developed cellulose aerogels are 5X higher than those of sand
and saw dust and also almost equal to those of commercial polymer
sorbents [47–51]. Although no cross-linkers were used in the
synthesis, the aerogel preserved its shape after being immersed in
